Strategic Planning Implementation and Evaluation
Introduction
Building on the Strategic Plan from Week 3, prepare a 10-slide Microsoft PowerPoint with narration of your plan to present to the Executive Committee.
Instructions

In this presentation:
Establish a clear vision for the strategic planning process.
Paint a picture of where your organization will be going and your desired outcomes.
Ensure the picture is reality and not what you or your Executive Committee may "want" to happen.
Make certain the strategic plan allows employees to know why the organization is changing.
